That is one insanely huge hotel room! Sometimes it's fun having hotel rooms larger than your actual residence. The rest of the hotel also looks quite impressive in scale. The decor, however, leaves much to be desired in my tastes. So gaudy... even beyond what I've expected from Dubai. It also feels old, as if it was out of the 60's or 70's with that color scheme.

The afternoon tea looks great - would you say that it was worth the price, considering the food and the view? I have a 9-hour layover, and debating whether to go to the Burj Khalifa viewing platform and spend some time in the Dubai Mall, or to go for afternoon tea. Arriving at 12:30PM (supposedly) makes me nervous about missing the first seating at 2PM, and I'd really like to get a window seat if I'm paying that much for afternoon tea.
